Maple Grove.


The water mains have all been laid
in Maple Grove Cemetery. There are
four drinking hydrants and seven
plugs for sprinkling, making q hydfant
every one hundred feet for the main
part of the yard. In addition to these
water has been carried to the waiting
,om and to the artificial lakes, which
have heretofore been dependent upon
the rains for their supply. Two foun-
tains in the park at the public vault
are aisO to be supplied.
Looking for further improvements
the eye is greeted by q pleasing view
in the northwest portion of the old
yard. Here few weeks ago was a
rough, uncouth surface, mounds and
shrubs being scattered indiscriminate.
ly over the lots. Now beautifully
graded surface greets the vision, and
when nicely covered with grass will
add much to the appearance of that
part of the cemetery. Next year will
probably see this work completed over
the entire grounds. 1t certainly will
if people will only take the trouble to
visit the place and see for themselves
what a small amount of systematic
labor can do in beautifying a rough
piece of ground.
Maple Grove Cemetery is a lovely
spot. suggestive of sunshine rather
than clouds. This ia right, and it ID

not dare to show his colts in the classes. To

ANatural barometer

On the farm of J. D. Nichols, situa.
about one fourth of a mile south OF
the Parkman. Geaugs county. line,
and about one half mile east of the
Hiram line, is a natural curiosity well
worth visit to see.
On this farm, known as the old Van
derslice farm, a we'll was dug about
sixty years ago, and after yielding a
bountiful supply of water for upwards
of half a century, was filled up with
| dirt and abandoned, presumably in
consequence of the abandonment and
destruction of an old house located
close by, the erection of which Occa
stoned the digging of the well. After
two or tb bree years had elapsed it was
cleaned out, and again made use of
until about the year 1872, when it was
again filled up. this time with large
boulders and smaller stones, since
which time the memory of the old
we'll was well nigh obliterated until
February last, when water was noticed
boiling and bubbling from the place
where it formerly was, forcing its way
through the soil which had been plac-
ed ever it. Wishing, if possible, to
know the cause of this commOtion, an
opening was made several inches in
depth, until the stones and boulders
were reached and a. crevice between
them discovered, through which a
very strong current of wind forced its
way. Further observations were made
and noted, and it was found that
portion of the time air, inst tsad of be-
ing expelled from the crevice, was
violently sucked in from the surround.
ing atmosphere.
Further observations were made of
the blowing and sucking, which were
presented to 8. M. Luther, of CARROTS
vile, gentleman of extensive scien-
tific knowledge, who compared them
with the rise and fall of the barometer,
and this hole in the ground was found
to be perfect natural barometer, for
when that instrument is high the air
would be sucked in, and when low,
blown out from this crevice. A large
tin whistle was made and placed over
the opening, and so strong is the cur
rent of air that this whistle has been
heard plainly for nearly one mile.
Again, as before stated, its operation |
is exactly reversed, and objects of con-
siderable size have been drawn in by
it.
Several theories have been advanced.
the most simple and plausible one be-
ing that large subterranean cavern
lies at the bottom of the crevice, which
has found an outlet here.
